Do you know an Ezekiel?

If so, where do you live? Country or county?

Is it becoming popular?

Thank you!

Makes me think of Pulp Fiction!

I know 3 all under 6 and one of my parents friends, I'm in Yorkshire. It's a lovely name was on our boys list but a close friend got there first!

Oh and sorry should add know 2 but neither are under 30

I like it! Classic but quirky...just my style...appreciate however that it may be an acquired taste for others.

I'm no Mystic Meg but I think it's fair to say that Ezekiel will always be niche.

DH has a cousin who has an Ezechiel. They are in Mauritius.

I don't know any but I love it! Would love to have a little Zeke, but unfortunately DH has vetoed. Angry

It's cool, but not as "now" as Obediah.

That's what I thought! However, It is ranked in top 500, I think at 485 and growing higher in the ranks in UK and is ranked 186 in US.

How is it pronounced? Ez-eh-keel?
Not come across it myself.

Limited popularity, I should think.
